General Finishes Milk Paint
Don’t you just love when you find a new product, try it out, and absolutely LOVE it? I do and I did.
In the search for a possible paint line to carry in my booths, Laura at turningleafcrafts mentioned General Finishes so after a little bit of looking it over, thought, I should check it out. So many brands of wonderful paint is on the market and finding the right one for my area has been a journey in itself.
I have been in contact with Sara and after receiving a sample of their products, I decided on this little chair which I had in my garage. Can anyone else relate – are there more chairs in your garage than in your dining room? (I’m raising my hand)
Lamp Black is a great black, which is sometimes hard to get whether they turn out to be too gray or just not a true black. This one is. Upon opening the can, which this milk paint is premixed, I could tell the color was a good one. This paint is pure silk to apply.
Here’s the before and after of my first GF project.
If you haven’t heard of this, or tried it out, it’s a must. You will find it very soon in Chattanooga.
I’ve included affiliate links to Amazon for you to find some products easier. I may receive a small commission, but the price is the same for you. It just helps my blog out.
Happy Travels,

Is this the kind that chips? I received some too but haven’t had the chance to try it! I am intrigued! Love the chair too!
This paint is premixed so it will adhere to most anything like chalk paint. I know in MMS milk paint, an additive has to be added for extra adhesion. This paint is so smooth to put on.
Wow…beautiful result!!! I just yesterday got a couple old tables from my Aunt’s estate. I was thinking I might refinish them to the natural finish, but this is so pretty, I might give it a try!!
If they are good wood or have any value, I would think about it before painting, but if it’s just something to use, paint is always a good option. Let me know if you need help in choosing paing.
